W.B.A vs Norwich Match Preview – Barclays Premier League

West Brom take on Norwich this Saturday at 15:00 GMT+0 at The Hawthorns in what may turn out to be the most interesting match of the weekend.  Both teams are enjoying excellent seasons with West Brom sitting 7th in the Barclays Premier League while Norwich sit two points behind them in 8th place.  West Brom haven’t won in 4 matches while Norwich have only lost once in 7 games enjoying victories over Wigan, Sunderland and Swansea City.  W win for West Brom this weekend could see them go fifth depending on how other matches finish elsewhere.  A win for Norwich could see them leapfrog West Brom and potentially sit in fifth place ahead of Arsenal and Everton.  West Brom will be looking to win heading into a busy Christmas spell that sees them travel to QPR and Manchester United.  A win for Norwich will give them great confidence for their next two matches which happen to be against champions Manchester City and last years Champions League winners Chelsea, both at Carrow Road.

West Brom will be without midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu who is suspended until Boxing day.  Ben Foster and Liam Ridgewell are both said to have a 50/50 chance of being fit for this match as they suffer from niggling injuries. Grant Holt may return for Norwich after struggling with a hamstring injury.  Goalkeep John Ruddy has been ruled out for Norwich as he struggles with a thigh injury and his return date is unkown.

The current betting odds for this match are: W.B.A (19/20) Draw (12/5) Norwich (3/1)

Gamingtips Prediction – W.B.A 0:2 Norwich

Norwich have proven themselves as a Premier League side and given their current run of form, coupled with the fact that Grant Holt should return, 3/1 odds seem reasonable.
